FOTD Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer

I have painted a sleeker, perhaps even sexier Reindeer Face painting design or makeup design for the classic Rudolf the Red nosed Reindeer lol! I couldn't help it. Sometimes my designs simply just create themselves and this is a perfect example of that.

This can of course be modified to a more masculine or boy like design but I painted it on myself so it came out more feminine. I hope you can draw inspiration from it to create your own fabulous reindeer face painting design from it.

I used Ben Nye lumiere white, Starblend White, Wolfe skin Palette, Orange and black.

FOTD Santa Claus face painting

 HO HO HO!! I'm Santa Mom. LOL I went to pick my kiddos up from school like this today and my kids were so embarrassed. I think it was all in good fun. They are probably scarred for life.
 I told my son that from now on when he's naughty I am going to paint my face and pick him up from school. I'm pretty sure he'll be on his best behavior now. Hey, whatever works :)

Here are a few pics for your Christmas face painting inspiration.
I used Wolfe White, Red and Black. Diamond FX metallic white. Fab Metal. Starblend black

Oh who doesn't love to hate The Grinch? The Grinch who stole Christmas inspired this design. This has to be my All time favorite Christmas animated movie. I can watch it over and over again. When Jim Carrey played the role of the Grinch it just brought that movie to a whole new level. I still remember my oldest son making me watch that movie over and over again when he was little.

New Years eve Make-up tips

Image via Wikipedia

Is it really necessary to go all out for New Years eve? Why YES it is! I'm only speaking to you single folk who don't spend your New Years eve with kids like we mom's do. I get to sit back and relax in my p.j.'s while sipping on hot chocolate (My last for a long time since, I will be starting a diet after New Years) and watch the wig drop on "Watch what happens live!" Yes, of course my kiddos will be in bed already because they never last til midnight anyways, so my husband and I can enjoy all the shenanigans all by ourselves.

 Well, if you're single sans children here are a few tips to ensure there will be no one turning into a pumpkin at midnight.......
1. Use a primer before your foundation: Your make-up will look smoother and last longer.
2. Use a cream blush as a primer: add a touch of powder blush over your cream blush for a longer lasting flush.
3. When in doubt go waterproof: I don't endorse passing out drunk at the party but, should you go a little too far and have to spend the night somewhere your make-up will last through the night and you'll still look fab in the morning if you go waterproof.
4. Use a long wearing lipstick: There's nothing uglier than ring around the mouth so, use a long wearing lip stain or lipstick...your lips will last through that strike of midnight kiss and you'll thank me for it.

I hope these prevent any late night mishaps for you fabulous children-free people and for all of you staying at home with your kiddos enjoy your hot chocolate and think of me LOL!

Wishing you ALL a prosperous and Beauty-FILLED New Year!

Love and kisses,
Shawna D.
